Prince Charlie.

little Charlie is prince"
So we said in joyous pride.
As we loitered, side by side.
Where the roses bloomed and died,
Half a dozen summers since.
He was rustling through the leaves
Where the golden tassels swayed,
Half in pleasure, half afraid.
Hiding in the furrowed shade
Where the August cricket grieves-
Silken tassels on the corn,
Silken curls about his head;
Which is which, we laughing said
While the sun glory shed
On the curls and tasseled corn.
Saxon eyes. and face, and hair,
Saxon blood in every vein.
Cheeks like roses after rains
Never shall we see again
Childish loneliness SO rare.
When the apple and the ounce
All their summer fragrance shed,
How we miss our darling dead;
How we miss the curly head
OF our lovely little prince.
Little Charlie was prince
But somebody in the sky
Had more need of him than /,
So we laid him down to die
Half dozen summers since.

Where margin merchants meet,
And take some little options
On January wheat
You watch the little ticker
Till the hands swing round the ring,
Then you find your little Doodle
Has gone a-glimmering.
That's business.
You go into faro bank
And buy a stack of chips.
And watch the cards come from the box
Which the dealer deity fips.
